Story
Following a terrorist attack on a ferry in New Orleans, ATF agent Doug Carlin joins an experimental government program to find the bomber using advanced time-bending technology that allows him to observe events four days and six hours in the past. As he tracks the target's movements, Carlin realizes that the bomber is planning another attack, always staying precisely four days ahead of him. The story follows Carlin's race against time to identify and stop the bomber before another tragedy occurs.
